If V is a set of n points in the unit square [0, 1]2 , and if R : V + is an assignment of positive real numbers (radii) to to those points, define a graph G(R) as follows: {v, w}...
We derive a recursive formula for expected utility values in imperfect- information game trees, and an imperfectinformation game tree search algorithm based on it. The formula and...
We introduce a probabilistic formalism subsuming Markov random fields of bounded tree width and probabilistic context free grammars. Our models are based on a representation of Bo...

Traditionally, rectilinear Steiner minimum trees (RSMT) are widely used for routing estimation in design optimizations like floorplanning and physical synthesis. Since it optimize...

We consider approximation algorithms for non-uniform buy-at-bulk network design problems. The first nontrivial approximation algorithm for this problem is due to Charikar and Kar...
